if you were Alison...

would this be your blanket?

This is my proposal for an arrangement of the colors we've been choosing over the last several months. Alison keeps saying she needs to see it all laid out before she can say whether she agrees to my proposal. These are not sewn together, and in fact, the dark blue squares are still rectangles; they've just been folded in half to get a picture of how they might look in the finished blanket.So what do you think? Would you go for this arrangement? Or tweak it slightly? Or come up with something completely different?

I might separate the green stripes (they are generally diagonal stripes of color, right?) out to balance the colors, but otherwise I think it looks awesome. I like the blue being square rather than rectangular, it adds interest, dimension, or something.

Welcome to Chez Deluxe

I used to be a teacher at an alternative elementary school, then I taught my own kids at home for a few years. This is where I try to figure it all out. I sometimes freely opinionate about what kids need and how school ought to be. There are lots of good discussions happening in the comments. Please chime in.

We started this blog as a place to chronicle our ongoing work on our old house, and sometimes that still comes up, as do knitting, spinning, and assorted other topics related to having a house and children.
